Od #1 starts happily enough, with a two colour cover and FREE B&W Telly offer!! The first strip opens with, There's a corpse in my flat...!! But the rest of this first issues mix of strips is really inconsistent! Most of them relying on swearing and gross-out as substitutes for any resolution, punch lines & ideas. All done in a faceless mix of style-less styles. The low points are Life takes a big fat shit on Arnold Smith, Crisp Newturd and the diabolically unfunny, on-going epic that is The Windswept Sheep!! I'd given up on Od until I fell over two lines from this is Jeremy.... "Judy kept her tits in a box! ...Meryle the girl from Venus told her to do it..!!" That cracked me up! Then, the Living Dead two pager, about three corpses in suits, crawling out of the earth for a night on the town! It's so brilliantly obvious and good natured in it's humour, e.g.: a passing car, zooms by, knocking off the hitching corpse's hand!! Ha! Ha! "My leg fell off while I was laughing"!!! So Fraser, dump the rest of the stuff in "Od" And do a comic featuring these guys!! "Tell me boys, how do I look?!" "You look dead Jerry!!" "So, do you think the babes will go for 'dead'?!" I'd buy it!!
